Beto O'Rourke criticized President Joe Biden's decision to run for a second term, arguing it ultimately contributed to the return of Donald Trump, who has threatened democratic norms. His remarks were voiced on the podcast Pod Save America, reflecting discontent among fellow Democrats regarding Biden's mental acuity and electoral viability. Following Biden's poor debate performance and his eventual drop out, Kamala Harris, his chosen successor, lost to Trump. Critics contend that Biden's decision has put democracy at risk amidst Trump's controversial policies and actions in his second term.
"Joe Biden failed this country in the most important job that he had by deciding to run for another term as US president before dropping out of the election that returned Donald Trump to the White House."
"We might very well lose the greatest country that this world has ever known, and it might be in part because of the decision that Biden and those around him made to run for re-election."
